You don't really need them. You can get new plugs from here
Then de pin your existing plugs and fit them in to your new connectors.

Changing To LED Rear Lights - pinout
I’m converting my van from barn doors to a tailgate which means I need to change my tail lights. This is how I changed mine to LED lights. Removing the lights is simply 2 screws but the wiring plug is different. You don’t need to crimp or cut any wires to make the conversion. Start my removing...

I don’t have the crimper or ends
If you find no one on here has the crimps, you can try this eBay vendor:
mshugaev-2008 on eBay
Any decent motor-factor / battery shop / auto-electrician would then be able to crimp them to a cable for you.

Just messaged you 
Hi all
Today I've swapped with the help of the a new plug from Pauly my THQ rear led lights to VW T6 led light (origional).
Car is a factory halogen car but has THQ headlights and previous owner through davtec had coding done so it didn't put the warning light on.
I thought and have read that the OEM tail lights although LED don't need coding? They are all pinned correctly and all illuminate fine, error on carista says control circuit parking light right, never had the light on before so must be due to the change of lights, it clears when you turn it off but comes back on between 5 and 10 seconds after driving, carista won't clear it.
Any ideas or does it need coding?
Cheers and any help appreciated.

Just some more info on it.
Just tried all variations of lighting etc and the bulb comes on after switching on the ignition if the lights are in auto or are on, if they are on O the lights doesnt come on, I can press brake revers indicate etc and no bulb out light, as soon as the lights come on whether by auto or straight to side or headlights it comes on so guessing it doesn't like the LED part of the lights.
Is this codable?

I had the bulb warning after installing OEM LED rear lights - same as you in that everything was fine except when sidelights were on. I could not disable the bulb warning with Carista either, but VCDS can code this out.
A bit of background - I had previously changed my H4 headlamps to OEM H7s and installed LED position lamps at the front with no problems. After installing the LED rears I tripped the same bulb warning issue that you have described.
I found that front position lamps and tail lamps share a common circuit; not sure if possible with your headlamps, though in my case just changing out the W5W LED from one of the front position lamps for a halogen original resulted in sufficient current draw to avoid the problem. Once that was known I was able to rule-out any problems with my new LED rear lights and then get the error disabled with VCDS.

Exactly the same as mine, I just ignore the warning light.
